About Pacific Standard Time (PST)
Pacific Standard Time (PST, IANA: America/Los_Angeles) is the standard time zone for the US West Coast and Canadian westernmost provinces, set at UTC-8:00. PST is observed from the first Sunday in November to the second Sunday in March per the Uniform Time Act of 1966; the region switches to Pacific Daylight Time (PDT = UTC-7:00) the rest of the year. PST is used by ~50 million people in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada (most), British Columbia, Yukon Territory, and the Mexican states of Baja California Norte. Major cities: Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, Portland, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Vancouver BC. PST is the time zone of US tech hubs (Silicon Valley, Seattle, Vancouver) — global software-release coordination, Big-Tech corporate-earnings calls, Hollywood production schedules, and NYSE/Nasdaq market hours (PST 06:30-13:00) all reference PST/PDT. Mexico abolished DST nationwide in 2022 except for border zones, complicating Baja conversions.
About Eastern Standard Time (EST)
Eastern Standard Time (EST, IANA: America/New_York, America/Toronto) is the time zone for the US Eastern Seaboard and Canadian eastern provinces, set at UTC-5:00. EST is the most economically and politically significant US time zone, serving the NYC-Washington DC-Boston-Atlanta-Miami corridor of ~150 million people across the entire US Eastern region (New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida except panhandle, Ohio, Kentucky eastern, Tennessee eastern, Indiana most, Michigan most), eastern Canada (Quebec, Ontario), and the Caribbean (Bahamas, Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, Panama since 1908). EST observes DST per Energy Policy Act 2005 (switching to EDT = UTC-4:00 from March to November). NYSE official market hours 09:30-16:00 EST/EDT, Wall Street financial reporting, US Federal Government Washington DC working hours, and US Capitol legislative sessions all reference EST/EDT. The historical 'Big Three' US TV-network prime-time was 8-11 PM EST.
